title: A novel tracing method for the segmentation of cell wall networks.
abstract: Cell wall networks are a common subject of research in biology, which are important for plant growth analysis, organ studies, etc. In order to automate the detection of individual cells in such cell wall networks, we propose a new segmentation algorithm. The proposed method is a network tracing algorithm, exploiting the prior knowledge of the network structure. The method is applicable on multiple microscopy modalities such as fluorescence, but also for images captured using non invasive microscopes such as differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopes.
